    ok i uninstalled a laser fix
    now the disc wont spin and the laser wont even shine
    just checked the fuses all are ok., checked the resistors and they all seem fine.
    could it be the RS2400FS? how do i test this chip?
    any other ideas?
    Thx

    When i worked on the early pswtwo's i found that the resistors that are on the main board can be very sensitive to heat (from the soldering) and even thou they show their values fine when testing them they may not be touching the main baord properly so i had to remove them and replace them with new resitors, standard non surface mount ones work fine. and only then my laser would start working properly again.
